Saying quicksilver northstar or photon beating classic stange is just wrong. do all these hell lords like mephisto and hela move at the speed of light? but its a given they beat a lot of lightspeeders...how do reality warpers even win when they cant think as fast as light speeders? How does thanos or darkseid really beat the flash? how do they even see him?it's like my character can do this and this manipulate this from of energy have telepathy use powerful magic etc...well my character can speedblitz so i win...
Mr Master, thank you for your reply; its always good to learn!
nwg, the reason why reality warpers etc can beat speedsters (imho) is because 'death' or being knocked out is a concept that the warpers are beyond. An example would be when Hawkeye shot HoM Wanda - she simply came back from it.
Without prep time and without auto shields, classic strange would be beaten by any speedster.
Darkseid is different again, as the New Gods exist in the 'Fourth World', so are outside our concepts of time and space. Thanos is...well, this is a reason why I didn't want to involve aliens an their reflex times lol.
When I was a kid, the power I most wanted was to those of the Spot, an obscure Spidey villain, after I saw him on the cartoon. Then I realised it was nothing without enhanced reflexes lol.
